@riley yeah...
I guess #TheEconomist has still too much revenue to pay for sponsorships...
"Centrism ... is to plant oneself firmly between what is assumed to be the standard left and standard right. Should one party propose to strip immigrants of all rights, and the other to strip them of only some rights, the intellectually rigorous thing to do is stripping immigrants of most rights. To compromise."

Comment: What I'm hoping for is all the MAGA jackasses responsible will end up in prison. The more MAGA in prison or sacked, the better for everyone everywhere.

Where are the so-called liberals, the centrists? Aren't they the ones who apparently support the rule of law? They all seem to have gone very quiet!
So-called #centrists are now the same as #conservatives as we knew them before #MAGA, thanks to #TFG & Co. having the #OvertonWindow bricked up. #Democrats can no longer be trusted.

It's probably a good time to really focus on #localelections to get some better representation later this year.
Electoral Dems are not coming to the rescue- Fetterman is being touted as a champion.
Had an interesting conversation with a "rational centrist".
I found out unfortunately, he's a Jordan "Humans are like crabs" follower.
But it was satisfying to see his brain skip a cog when he proudly announced he's a "Centrist" to which I replied "...a little bit of evil is OK with you then?"
Centrists will always lose to Fascists.
Always.
Hey kids, guess what I found!

Centrists tutting at us when they'd snitch on Anne Frank and the status quo is actually fine thank you very much.
